In Belle Ami's novel, The Girl Who Knew Da Vinci weaves a tale of mystery, passion, and tension. Angela Renatus becomes a prized intern at the Getty Museum, but her life takes a surreal turn as she begins having strange dreams. Detective Alex Caine seeks her assistance in locating a missing Da Vinci painting, and their joint quest opens doors to secrets they never could have imagined. The story takes us on a journey of self-discovery as Angela and Alex navigate their growing feelings for each other and confront the dangers of those who will stop at nothing to obtain the valuable artwork.
 
The book is a fast-paced, action-packed story with twists and turns that keep the reader engaged. The central plot revolves around the search for a lost painting, and the hints and clues uncovered along the way lead to a thrilling conclusion. The book features a captivating romantic storyline that spans across five centuries and is intertwined with several other subplots. The subplots, which involve the characters of Giuliano and Fioretta, Sophia, and Gerhard, among others, add depth to the story and provide answers to the reader's questions. The blend of genres is smooth, and the change in Angela's eye color from brown to green serves as a unique and clever way of depicting Fioretta's presence.
 
The beginning of the story sets the tone for the rest of the book, emphasizing the power of love to give us strength and overcome adversity. Throughout the book, the reader is introduced to three couples: Gerhard and Sophia, Angela and Alex, and Giuliano and Fioretta. These couples represent different stages of love, and their relationships are explored in depth. Gerhard and Sophia's love is mature and emotional; Angela and Alex's is youthful and passionate; and Giuliano and Fioretta's is built on chemistry and conversation. While the author does an excellent job of portraying the beauty of love, they also address the darker aspects of relationships.
 
There was nothing to dislike about this work, as I said. The book was exceptionally edited because it contains no errors. Therefore, I would rate this book 5 out of 5 stars
 
The book combines elements of historical fiction with artistic elements to create a unique and engaging reading experience. If you are a reader who enjoys stories that incorporate history and art into their narrative, I would highly recommend this book to you. The book contains some sexual content, though, so I would advise that it be read by adult readers.
